One story says the expression began in the theater. New actors, shaking with fear, were told that their only way out was to go out and face the music. The music was played by the musicians seated in front of the stage.A similar expression is face up to. It means to accept something difficult or painful. For example, a man must face up to the fact that he lied about a business deal and will lose his job.A child was told off by his mother at home because of his bad grades in study, but he put a good face on it before his friends.Meeting someone face-to-face can be exciting, especially if the other person is famous. It is an expression one might use after visiting the White House and meeting the president face to face. Or a teacher might ask for a face to-face meeting with the parents of a student in trouble.Almost 500 years ago, William Shakespeare also used some words about music in his play Two Gentlemen of Verona. Valentine secretly loves Lady Sylvia. His servant jokes that Valentines love for her is as hard to see as the nose on a mans face, thus creating another expression: as plain as the nose on your face. Of course, a mans nose cant be hidden.（1）When you have done something wrong, dont .A . face the musicB . face up to itC . put a good face on itD . do it face-to face（2）The underlined phrase as plain as the nose on your face in the last paragraph means something that .A . is hard to seeB . can be coveredC . is very dearD . can be funny（3）The passage is probably taken from a .

According to her, the best age to start learning the violin is between three and six. She says, “Its the time when you are learning about the world.” Margaret, who was born in London, likes to take pupils at three and four. However, she has made lots of exceptions (例外) for five-year-olds. She started teaching the violin in 1972 and she taught her childrens five-year-old school friends at first.In Margarets opinion, its important for one to know why music sounds the way it does. Without knowing it, one cant become a great musician at all. So from the earliest lessons, pupils in her class learn to play by ear. They do not even try to read music until they have been playing for several years. Margaret says that her method is not to produce great violinists. She always suggests that pupils should leave and study the violin using more traditional methods.Information CardThe occupation(职业) Of Margaret Porter_.The place where Margaret was born_.The time when Margaret started teaching violin_.What to learn from her earliest lessons_.Margaret Porters suggestion_.四、 翻译句子 (共1题；共1分)25. （1分）王源，TF组合成员之一，是第一个在联合国论坛发表演讲的中国青少年。WangYuan ,one of the TF Boys, is _ at the UN Forum(论坛).五、 短文填空 (共1题；共10分)26. （10分）根据所给首字母、上下文或汉语提示完成空格中所缺单词，使短文完整通顺，语法正确。每个空只能填一个词。My dear son,I think my life has been long enough now.
